Fun facts

  • Katakana カ comes from part of the kanji 加, while hiragana か developed from a cursive man'yōgana form.
  • カ can be confused with the kanji 力, which looks almost identical; context usually distinguishes katakana from kanji.
  • Adding dakuten changes カ into ガ, shifting the sound to its voiced counterpart.
